Sculptural copper-clad panels flank the top and base, raised slightly off the surface and embossed with abstract reliefs—a study in proportion and materiality, characteristic of the firm’s architectural sensibility. Celebrated for their precision metalwork and bespoke commissions, Santambrogio e De Berti brought a sculptural sophistication to everyday objects.

Founded in Milan in the early 1900's , the firm rose to prominence between the 1930s and 1970s, becoming a trusted fabricator for Italy’s leading modernist architects. Their work spanned custom furnishings, staircases, and decorative elements, always marked by structural clarity and refined craftsmanship. This mirror is a quietly powerful example of their legacy—functional and architectural.
